Where can Grizzlies’ Zach Edey improve most? The small steps the NBA’s biggest player can take
As a defender, Edey moves his feet with decent lateral quickness and with time, will be able to contain quicker players. The Grizzlies like to have him in drop coverage, using his 7-10 wingspan to protect the rim. Per Second Spectrum, players are shooting 58.3 percent on attempts within six feet of the rim where Edey is the primary defender.
